What is the context?

The conclusion praises the Lord, asks that the earth be filled with His glory, and closes with a double amen. A collection note then marks the end of the prayers of David son of Jesse.

The praise returns the royal hopes to God as the One who does wondrous works. The king’s gifts and justice are not detached from Him.

The collection notice should be read as part of the Psalter’s arrangement. It does not require treating every later psalm associated with David as impossible.

How is this passage commonly understood?

The USCCB note identifies the doxology as the close of the second book. Wesley goes further by treating this as David’s final composition. The arrangement itself does not establish that biographical conclusion, so it should be presented as his interpretation rather than a demonstrated date.
